GUILFORD – A Bainbridge man died Tuesday afternoon after police said he attempted to make a u-turn in an intersection and was hit by a truck hauling cattle.

According to New York State Police Public Information Officer Aga Dembinska, at 3:40 p.m. on Tuesday state police were dispatched to County Routes 36 and 37 in the Town of Guilford.

“The call came out as a two car serious personal injury accident,” said Dembinska. "After arriving on scene troopers determined that a 2003 Honda Civic was heading west on County Route 37, but conducted a u-turn directly in the path of a southbound 16 Ford F350 that was pulling a loaded cattle trailer with 12 full grown cows on board."
